The happy couple and their dog.

I really enjoyed creating this for my wonderful niece and her very lovely husband at their recent wedding.  It’s a group print with ‘future hopes and blessings’ from their guests on their wedding party day.

It began with a sketch from an image on a background of colourful circles.  I then asked the happy couple to share with me their examples of their handwritting.  I created this into a custom rubber stamp printing alphabet.  On the day I asked guests to print their ‘future hopes and blessing’s for the newly weds. 

The final version is now framed and on a wall in their house with lots of ‘wonderful’, ‘joy’ and ‘naughtiness’.
